Indignation in a Pennsylvania Town.


PHILADELPHIA, January PA dis
patch from Coatesville, Pa, says: The
situation of the strike at the iron works
of Charles Huston & Sons and Worth
Brothers has assumed a different aspect
during the past few days. On Saturday
evening several Pinkerton detectives
arrived and went to the works OF Worth
Brothers, where it is expected an attempt
will be made to resume on Monday
When approached on the street they
pointed reyOlyers at the citizens who at
tempted to speak to them. Every tram Is
being watched closely to see that nobody
comes TO take the situations offered at
the mills. All day Sunday the streets
were filled with men, and an Indignation
meeting of citizens was called at the old
town hall.
That hall would not hold half the pee
plc and all went to Market hall, where
ZOO men cheered at the stirring speeches
made by prominent citizens. Resolutions
were adopted expressing great indigna-
ton at the course Of Worth Bros. in hir-
ing irresponsible parties to intiame the
people of the borough and vicinity, and
requesting the burgess and council to ap-
point such officers as in their judgment
they deem necessary to preserve the
peace.
They also requested the burgess to for
bid any of the so-called detectives from
appearing on the streets as officers OF the
law. One of the speakers denounced the
Pinkerton thugs" as the offals of pris-
ons, the scum of the cities, and men who
are too lazy to work if they get it. A
boarding house has been fitted up at the
mill 10 accommodate the "black sheep

VIENNA, January 24.-Rules governing
the landsturm, which have been published,
show that nothing except blindness, deaf
ness. dumbness and lameness will exempt
men from service, and that drafts from
the landsturm will be used to fill up the
gaps in the regular army and navy re-
serves. The new rules have rather sur
prised the country, such sweeping, string
ent conditions not having been expected,
1t is estimated that the landsturm would
supply a million additional men to the
army. The regulation appended to the
decree relative to the landsturm directs
that if the men are summoned before
uniforms are received, they must wear
insignia, consisting of yellow and black
armbands and bearing the number OF the
regiment to which they belong. 1t is fur
ther ordered that each man must provide
himself with metal case in which to
keep papers by which he may be identi-
fed. Men wearing their own clothes
shall be allowed ten kreuzers daily.
These instructions TO the landsturm are
regarded as indications of an early cam
paign, and cause dIsquiet
